ok, so tommorow tuesday the 18th, my sprint springs, and kyb gr2 struts are finally getting installed. i plan to take plenty of before and after pics, and will try to get pics of the process. what i want to know is if anyone has any tips of any kind, or if anyone else has any specific questions about the setup.
but first i have a question. i took one of my struts out of the box, and i was just checkin in out, are they sposed to be pressurized? cuz i like pushed the rod and it went right in. it offered no resistance at all. im not familiar with how struts are supposed to work. so do the struts provide any resistance at all or do they just control the bounce of the springs?
NEW PICS!
